The Bass pickup of choice since it was developed. The EMG-P, like all the original EMG's, went through a redesign in 1979. The original "Embossed EMG Logo" model made everybody sit up and listen. The pre-79 models are still used by players like Lee Sklar and Alphonso Johnson. More than just a few have gravitated to the EMG-P for stage performance and studio recording.
The EMG-P uses short, squat coils that have very little resistance and plenty of inductance. Because the coils are not in series like the passive types, there's about twice as much low end as a passive pickup. Ceramic magnets are used to add clarity. Countless pros find it has a natural presence, powerful lows, punchy midrange, and superior definition.
The EMG-P features hum-free noiseless operation with an even timbred response. The P design was adapted for Ned Steinberger and became the EMG-SS (Steinberger Sound) used exclusively on the Steinberger Headless Bass. In order to make the composite bass sound more natural, steel poles are added for warmth and midrange.

Important Installation Notes:We always recommend taking your bass to a professional for pickup installation. While most EMG pickups are an exact direct-replacement, some routing of the pickup cavities may be required for proper installation depending on your application.Check your manufacturer's warranty before installing pickups. Installing aftermarket pickups may void your manufacturer's warranty. Only one battery is required for the pickups, and any active accessories such as the BTC, BTS, BQC, VMC, B30, and B64 equalizers. Two batteries wired in series for 18 volts is recommended for bass to increase headroom and enhance performance.Use an Alkaline or Lithium battery for longest life.The controls included with EMG Systems are 25K Ohm, Audio Taper. This value of control is required for the system to work correctly.When installing EMG Pickups, DO NOT reconnect the bridge ground wire. This wire is usually soldered to a volume or tone control casing and goes to the bridge. This wire grounds the strings and uses them and your body as a shield against hum and buzz. It also creates a shock hazard. EMG Pickups are shielded internally and DO NOT require string grounding. This greatly reduces the possibility of reverse polarity shock from microphones and other equipment.EMG Active Pickups have very little magnetism compared to passive pickups. We recommend you adjust the pickups as close to the strings as possible. Sustain and string movement will not be inhibited by close adjustment.If your installation is different from the diagrams in the included instructions or you need additional diagrams, visit EMG's website, www.emgpickups.com, for a complete listing of available diagrams. |
